Don't know all the politics around ASU vs UA regarding medical schools but this is huge.
Props to Dr. Crow.

The Mayo Clinic is recruiting its first class of 50 students for a new medical school that will begin next summer on its campus in Scottsdale.
It's a tangible step in what Mayo and Arizona State University leaders say will be a growing effort to bring innovative medical education to Arizona and beyond. The two entities described the arrangement as the Mayo Clinic and Arizona State University Alliance for Health Care.
The Mayo Clinic School of Medicine has raised private donations to renovate an existing building to create classroom and training space at Mayo's Scottsdale campus, located at 13400 E. Shea Blvd. The Mayo Clinic School of Medicine is an accredited medical school with locations in Rochester, Minn., Florida and the soon-to-open Arizona location.
ASU has purchased a land parcel near Mayo Clinic's hospital in northeast Phoenix. The university has started design work and expects to start construction there next year on a 150,000-square-foot building to be named the Health Solutions Innovation Center.
ASU President Michael Crow said at least two schools — ASU's schools of biomedical informatics and science of health-care delivery — will relocate to the new building when it is completed. The new building also will include a med-tech innovation accelerator and biomedical engineering, according to ASU.

Crow noted that other ASU researchers are investigating areas such as consumer-wearable devices that could track vital signs and other health measurements. If used correctly, such devices could potentially relay key information about a patient to a doctor via smartphone, preventing or delaying a medical emergency.
When Mayo opens next summer, it will be the second four-year medical school in metro Phoenix. It will come one decade after the University of Arizona opened a branch campus in Phoenix in 2007. The UA College of Medicine now has independently accredited medical schools in Tucson and Phoenix. The publicly funded Phoenix medical school graduates about 80 doctors each year.
Creighton University also trains its third- and fourth-year medical-school students at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix. Two other private schools — Midwestern University in Glendale and A.T. Still University in Mesa — operate osteopathic medical schools that graduate students with DO degrees.
The Mayo Clinic School of Medicine already has secured clinical-training locations in metro Phoenix. Students will use them when they advance from the classroom to hands-on clinical work. In addition to training at Mayo Clinic's hospital in Phoenix, students can learn pediatrics at Phoenix Children's Hospital and obstetrics at Maricopa Integrated Health System, the county's health district.
Mayo also will train students at Mountain Park Health Center, a community health-care center with more than a half-dozen clinics in metro Phoenix.
Dr. Michele Halyard, who will serve as dean at the Mayo Clinic School of Medicine campus in Scottsdale, said the Arizona school already has received about 3,000 applications for the initial class of 50 students. The school will accept applications through the fall, she said.
Props to Dr. Crow.
